Chapter 433 (1/2)
When the army of tricks arrived, Song Jiang had no worries. After visiting the tricks, he didn't attack the city again the next day, but challenged under the city.
Naturally, sun an was ”angered” by Li Kui's nonsense, so he led his army out of the city and defeated Li Kui, Yang Zhi and Qin Ming. Finally, he was defeated by Lu Junyi and fled into the city.
The next day, Song Jiang attacked the city. After the trick arrived, the accompanying literati group came in place and began to suppress the city, which made it much easier for Song Jiang to attack the city. However, although he killed many soldiers guarding the city, he still failed to capture the city in the end.
On the third day, he tried his best to persuade sun an to surrender under the city. Under the combined kindness and authority of sun an, the guard General of Xihe River ”repented”, immediately wept, reflected on his mistakes in recent years, pleaded guilty on the spot, exposed Tian Hu's evil deeds in recent years, and decided to surrender to the city.
The decision made all the officers and men very angry.
You are the chief general sent by the king to guard Fenzhou. It hasn't been a few battles yet. The outcome is not clear, so you decided to surrender. It's fun!
If we really surrender like this, why do we need you to come? Don't we surrender early?
Immediately, the generals stationed in Xihe expressed opposition. Even when sun an said he wanted to surrender, he immediately wanted to summon the generals to seize power.
However, sun an has been preparing for such a long time. How can he let several generals ruin his major events?
Under his command, there are ten generals who can enlist and be good at war, all of whom are martial arts in the territory of FA Xiang. Among the ten people, four were arranged under him to help him make achievements under Tian Hu, and two were confidants accepted by sun an himself. After he contacted the trick, he knew that two others were also sent to Hedong by the trick
So when the generals wanted to force the palace, they found that they had been surrounded by others.
And the song army outside the city has begun to enter the city.
Now that he was ready to surrender, sun an naturally replaced the person guarding the city gate with his confidant early. When he announced his decision to surrender, he opened the city gate of the West River to welcome the intriguing army into the city.
The last two generals under sun an smiled bitterly and also chose to surrender.
They are not loyal to Tian Hu. They decisively chose the former in the two choices of living and loyalty to Tian Hu.
They were ordered to surrender, well, that's it.
Under sun an's operation, Xihe didn't make a big storm. He killed five or six Dharma States and thousands of troubled Tian Hu's loyal followers in public, and immediately calmed down.
It is still impossible to clearly say that sun an is the insider he sent to Tian Hu. He praised sun an's action of abandoning the secret and appointing him as the military commander and leading his troops to fight with him.
Song Jiang stared at the sudden change and really admired it.
Sure enough, I still wish the prime minister a great reputation. With just a few words, I can persuade the enemy general to surrender. In contrast, my false reputation in the Jianghu was not worth mentioning.
I have to learn from Zhu Xianggong more modestly in the future.
I don't know that Song Jiang has made up so much. After entering the city, he didn't give Song Jiang time to rest. He ordered him to continue to go south and seize the counties of Fenzhou while Tian Hu was not prepared.
After reorganizing the troops and horses who defected, he will appoint officials on the spot for temporary management, waiting for the imperial court to appoint officials.
Of course, during this period, the emperor did not hesitate to show his merit to some meritorious people. Naturally, many people became regular and became local officials.
……
Tongyu, Jin palace.
Tian Hucai scolded Tian Bao, his second brother who had fled in a mess, but a few days later, he received the news that the song army had captured Pingyao, Jiexiu and other counties. He found out the specific information and learned that sun an repented and offered the city. Tian Huqi was so angry that he almost didn't spit blood.
